Hmong New Year 2011
For Hmong villages in & around the Mae Sa Valley - Samoeng Should be 5-12 January 2011 approximately.

9 January 2011 5 Hmong villages will celebrate together in Mae Sa Mai.

8 January 2011 12 Hmong villages will celebrate in Huai Sieo? out of Hang Dong?, according my Hmong contacts.
This will be the big one for around Chiang Mai; but I'm still trying to pinpoint the exact location of Huai Sieo. :roll:

David,
H'mong New Year in VN - called NaoX-Cha here - will apparently take place around a 15 day period at the end of Jan & begining of Feb in accordance with the lunar calendar. The H'mong are mainly found in HaGiang with a scattering in Quan Ba, Yen Minh, Dong Van, Meo Vac, Xin Man & Hoang Su Phi.
Cheers
